Sadly disappointed,
This book could not grip me, I struggled to maintain interest.
I knew the story as would anyone who grew up in my day, plus Palin did his version. So I was looking forward to this.
It as anyone will know is a classic and was on my bucket list of books. I always firstly let down by the speed the characters disappeared through Europe. Then the rest of the book was like a travel document. Which in its way was fascinating, the description of crafts, people and places was excellent. Looking back to the days before TV or Internet, this must have been amazing.
